crazychicknlady | Facebook Birthday messages are awkward enough when you're alive.

Today on my feed I got to see all the people sending messages to a dead friend, who is still on my facebook friends list. Oddly, I'm rather grateful that his wife never closed his account, since seeing his name pop up every now and then is a bittersweet reminder of having known him. I am, however, a little disturbed by the messages being sent his way, on his Birthday. I'm pretty sure that if there is a place he is now that he's gone, he probably doesn't have access to Facebook.

That would be a special kind of hell - you can read your facebook, but never post. And Joe posted a lot. Now that the presidential campaign has started, he'd be having a field day.
